GAS-BURNER TIP.

SPECIFICATION forming part. of Letters Patent No. 366,528, dated July 12, 1387- Application filed January 25, 1887.

T0 aZZ whom, it may concern:

Be it known that we, EDDY T. THOMAS'and WHIPrLE V. PHILLIPs, citizens of the United States, and residents of the city, county, and State of New York, and city and county of Providence, and State of Rhode Island, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Gas-Saving Tips, of which. the following description, in connection with the accompanying drawings, is a specification,like letters on the drawings representing like parts.

The object of this invention consists in con structing a gas-burner tip with twolougitudinal bisectional parts, so the gas is retarded in passing through, and so that the sections may be readily united.

The invention consists in forming a gashurner tip with two longitudinal bisectional parts, having lugs and recesses on their contingent faces, to prevent one section from slipping below the other, an enlarged chamber at the top of the tip, so that a broad flame will be given, and the lower end of the hole which forms a passage through the tip made smaller than the outlet at the top, so that the gas as it comes from the main is checked and the direct force is turned against the walls of the chamber, substantially as described and claimed.

' Figure 1 represents ourimproved bisectional tip. Fig. 2shows the face and concave of one of the sections of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 shows the lower end of the tip on linercw, Fig. 1. Fig. 4 shows the tip on line as m, Fig. 2.

A, Fig. 1, represents one of our improved tips, having bisectional parts a 0 divided on line 0, and having slot m, formed at the time of striking or molding the parts by ofi'setting the material on one or both of the contiguous faces, preferably on both, as in manufacturing both parts will be made alike, so they will be interchangeable, and thus save the annoyance of assorting and selecting the right parts to fit. \Ve also save the expense of two sets of dies or molds. Ve are enabled to do this by forming one-half of the slot m on each section; also one lug, I), and one recess, b, on each, so when two made alike are turned face to face the lug b fits into the recess b of the otherseetion. By the aid of these lugs one section is Serial No. 225,427. (No model.)

prevented from slipping below the other as they are pressed into the barrel, which holds them together and prevents the gas from escaping between the faces.

\Ve intend to manufacture these tips from sheet metal, and in so doing we shall form a concave head, 0, Fig. 2, which will be larger than the diameter of the passage (1. By this we are enabled to produce a tip which will give a broad round flame.

That the direct flow of the gas in its course through the tip may be changed, and consequently a lighter pressure obtained at the outlet of the tip, we form a flange, 1}, on the lower end of the tip, as shown in Fig. 2, in which we make a hole, 25, as shown in Fig. 8, through 6 5 which the gas must pass in its course to the slot at, which is of larger capacity than the hole it. That we may further check the flow of gas, the holes '6 in the bisectional parts 0 c, Fig. 3, are formed at aninclination to the hot, tom ofthe tip, as shown in Fig. 2. This causes the gas to strike the chamber (1 at an angle, (shown by line 00 m, Fig. 2,) forcing the gas to take a zigzag course as it passes through.

As both of the bisectional parts 0 c, forming 7 the tip A, are made by one die, and the holet is on an angle, two openings are made into the chamber d when the sections are put face to face. This diverts the flow of gas and forces it against the opposite walls of the chamber (7, .80 destroying any direct flow of gas through the tip as it comes from. the main. By this plan we are enabled to save a large per cent. of the gas, and as a more complete combustion takes place a better light is produced.

The capacity of-the holes 15 or their equivalents should be smaller than the slot in.

YVe are aware that regulators have been used, but not with the tips.

Having thus fully described our invention, what we claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

1. The gas-burner tip A, provided with longitudinal bisectional parts (2 a, each section being provided with lug b and recess I) on the contiguous faces, so the sections will be interchangeable,as and for the purpose specified.
